I'bc intermediate and junior basket- 
ball teams will play regular Prorin- 
cial League games to-night, when 
they meet the North Branch Y,M.C..\. 
at the Central V..M.C.A. The interme- 
diates will be weakened by the ab- 
sence of Wllliscroft from tbe line-up. 
but anticipate little difficulty in down- 
ing the men from tbe nortb end. The 
came will be an inliresling oue. and 
w ill be about tbe bif.t i hance that will 
bp Riven .McGlll men to see them at 
their bci^t. U i.-i hoped that a crowd 
will be present- The juniors are pre- 
pared to give a hard battle tn Ibelr 
game. They have been rather unfor- 
tunate In getting organized so late in 
tbe season, but have altalneil fair 
(orm at present. 

Tbe. intermediate line-up will b« as 
follows: 

Heanz and Piitt, forward.'!; J. IVi--

Snow prevented the long-expected 
skating party announced for laat night 
by covering up the. ice, and the eager 
visitors bad to be conlcatcd with a

girl* and men from .\Ia(:donald Col- 
ICRp took lu it \pry kindly, tind ilio 
whole ten tiimibers were talked

The second meeting of the .Mining 
society of .McGlll wa.s held last even- 
ing in the .Mining Building. Mr. Weir. 
.Milling "16. the president, called the 
nieeting to ordei, 11, A. Cater, ;-.ri- 
rcfaiy-tieaaurer of the society, read 
the minutes of the previous meeting. 

Dr. J. 11. Porter, the head oi the 
Mining Department,' and Ihc honuiaiy 
president of the .Mlnlus .Society, then 
gave a very interesting address on the 
history of Ihc spring miniUB trip, 
which has h'ceii Ik Id i vei y year ,sliicf. 
IS9S, with the exception of last year, 
on account of the present prevailing 
conditions. 

Dr. Porter ;;tatril llini tbe v(ar 
>n\v Ihc iliilial irip of tin- Miiiiiu Su- 
ch I. \ 'i'lir ii-al |iiii|iosc of tbf 11 111. 
wliicb lake;; place i<\ iIk «ml uf ilu' 
college term, la^^tin;; abmii ; i\ wrcli,;, 
is to give the men who iiiteud to take 
the mining eotirsc .some practical 
knowledge of the miniug methods in 
different parls of the country. The 
trip was essentially for the men of the 
third years, but it was extended in iho 
later years to Include all men inter- 
ested In mining who desired to make 
the best of any opportunity of this 
nature. 

Il was very soon afler Dr. Porter 
lioi ame actively connected with Mc- 
Gills .Mining Department that ihitj 
trill was established, and the Faculty, 
realizing that ibis inr inu iivc trip wa.-^ 
a necessary iiiul e.i.senilal part of a 
miner's education, made ll pan of the 
pro-scribed iiiininj; ( iirrii iiliiiii. Ii is

the summer \ara!.ioii. In lai i, tliis fea- 
ture is sUougly iidvotalcil by IJi . 
Porter. 

The past trips, which have been 
held each summer .since lS!)»i, with the 
exception of last year, were in -i gen- 
eral way described liy Dr. Porter. The 
tiiiis have always- been very we.'l ii'.- 
lemlcd; thirty students on a triy wns 
no rare occurrence. Dr. Port!r 
always on hand, with a number of the 
Hiaff, to direct and supervise tlie.si> 
n il -. Oi: Sl ino of the trl,i!j i can 
Adams, Dr. Bancroft, .Mr, Sam Wer- 
n-r. Mr. l.vll. Dr. Stansficp], un.i 
I'ruf. Fvans accompanied the stu- 
dents, thus adding very much to the 
(|ualily of the education rccclTcd on 
these trips. 

Due \( ry nun ti to the si-(>a( peii- 
ero.sit) of the. lalo .-^ir William \'an 
llornc, the sinerniiic body of the L'lii- 
versity saw fit to srant a pan 
mcut of the t'osts i inbmlied liy the 
trip, Depeniliii? ii|)Dn ihi iiunibei of 
.-itiidenls RoiUR on the trip, one |iii\aic 
car, or sometiiiics two, wcio hired 
from the Canadian Pacific Railway at 
a special concession. The cost to the 
students layabout $12i} per man, the 
University paying those charges over 
and above. 

Tbe trip each year is to a different 
section of tbo country, there being no 
laid out or set trip. By this process 
the whole of Canada, and parts ot 
espceiai interest In the United Slale.^. 
havo been visited. Fight Iriiis have 
been taken to British Cnhiiiibia, four 
to tbe I'nltcd ."=;tates. four to the Co- 
liali (listiici, and iiiaiiy others to Nova 
Scoli.i and niiiie.>( nearer to .Montreal. 

.\fier tbe couclusinn of Dr. I'oiter'.s 
addre.».', some very wonderful and in- 
IcrcstlnK lantern slides were sIiO'mi 
aa.l explained by >Ir. Wernei. who b;.: 
a'-ted the part of nV iioKiaiihrr on tb ' 
m.my nSym In which be a<roniiiaiii' (l 
the miners, thus aceMniiilaiiiis <|iiiie a 
wi'resprcad col ecibiii. The slidorf 
shewed the nilnca ainn.t; the main lino 
of tbf C.P.R. from New Brunswick t>i 
Rosriand. B.C., going out, and, return- 
ing, showed the mines along the 
Crow's Nest Pass route. The slid 
brought to ligfat the manner in whicb 
the students came in intimate contact 
with methods of mining on tho Jour- 
ney. A /great deal ot the success of 
tbe evening .may ho credited to Mr. 
Werner's entertainment. 

The e.xiremely abundant supply of 
rcfreshmcniii may be credited to the 
eneigy and toresilght of Dr. Porior.

From the school bench to the normal school, from the normal 
^cbool to the teacher's dovsk, t.ur educational system, at its best, 
lias evolved into a machine. In mechanics it is found that the 
Tîiore complete and perfect a machine, the fewer things it will do, 
says the Weekly Witness. Its work becomes standardized. In- 



tlonately remember, was Iiobcrl

"The Cbippcndalos." and other uov- 
oU. Barrett Wendell, loo. now a

ntwspapers, a standard width of column, a standard size of type. 

Engineers used to make special girders to suit tlicir bridge design. 
Now they design the bridge ^o suit tlic standard girders their ma- 
chines turn out, and can do the .job better in half the time and at 
half the cost. Silversmiths used to make a new design for every 
tankard and biscuit bo.s. They now make a thousand to a given 
design, and can afford to have a good design. Houses arc now 
produced to standard pattenis, unci arc ordered \vhole. For ma- 
tdiial things the economy of the machine method is unquestion- 
able, though lovers of art abominate it. In like manner it used to 
b« said of the common school education of the United States that 
the product was all No. 9 wire— all pulled through the same hole. 
The maclunc has been immensely improved, but still the tendency 
is to standai'dization. and it is a question whether the product can 
b» said to be educated, individuality being largely suppressed in 
teacher and scholar. 

Now wo arc going lu do our teaching literally by machine, 
continues the Witness. The Chicago School Board has authorized j tors of ten or fifteen >cars ago affee- 
the use of moving-pictures in the schools of the city. Plainly it 
is a facility that cannot long be ignored. When it comes into gen- 
eral use it will almost enforce tlic consolidation of rural schools. 
The child who has been in tiie habit of learning the barren names 
of places which convey no idea to himself or to his teacher, and to 
whom if in the States geography has for tlie most part been the 
chequer pattern made by the counties of his own state with like 
assemblages of little squares in other states, with like names, De«- 
catur. Warren, Jefferson, Jackson, etc., all over again to confuse 
him. Now when the Chicago boy reads of Greece he will be able 
to visit tho sunny isles. From Ida he will look over Ti'oy, he will 
climb Olympus where the gods lived, and Parnassus, the home of 
the Muses. When he is told of the beauty of Greece he will see 
Arcady and the Ya.\c of Tempe. When he learns of the defence 
of Greece against the Persian hç will visit TheiTnopylae and sea- 
bora Salamis. If the lesson touches on the present war he will 
be able to realize, as few of us have done, the heroism of Anzac. 
Jtlc, the Chicago boy, will eschew England, but will see Ireland in 
'its lovely greenery, with a few phases of landlord cruelty 
thrown in. 

Nothing in school could be more informing than such a system 
of entertainment. Whether it will be education or not wll depend 
on how it is used. Education means training the powers into effi- 
ciency and strength. The pupil must learn to work his mind or 
htt is not educated at all. With such fascinating excitement as the 
ijfctures would give, the child's mind might not only not be better 
fitted for mental discipline, but even unfitted. It would be abso- 
iulely necessary, if the latter result was not to follow, that the ex- 
hibits should be associated with active, not passive, exercises of 
mind. We have always de.^ircd to see the moving-pictures in 
school, even at some risk to the children's eyes, for quite another 
mscii, namely, t-j take off the edge of the children's curiosity 
for the picture liicatrcs. who?.e effect is admittedly deleterious. It 
is not easy to keep them from these, but, as in many spheres, the 
best rcinedy may be to overcome evil with good — so to educate the 
children's taste that they will not be so easily charmed by vulgar- 
lt>- and impropriety.

.Mr. WIster as guest of honor, chief 
apeech-niaker and terminus for in- 
numerable complimeutB from other 
Lampooners present. 

It would seem, from scanning the 
above list of Lampoon editoi's who 
"made good" that tbcy turned almo.si

soon the door of the sanctum

ways the caic. Une. at least persist- 
ed in boing a funny man even when 
engulfed in the wilds of business. On 
the roster of Lampoon men scattered 
over tho country appears tJie name of 
Brncst Lawrence Tbuyur, author of 
"Casey at the Bat." That wasn'l a 
very serious production, as all who 
have beard Pe AVolf Hopper's thril- 
ling recital of it will agree- 

To return to solemn matters. In- 
stead of things like "Casey at the 
Uat," another Lampoon wan. Profes- 
sor George Santayana, of ITaiTard, 
wrote J after graduation " Interprola- 
tlons of Pocli'y and nellsion" and 
"The Life of Reason." .\Uo he look

in the advertisement contracts that 
Ihcrc muft he twenty Issugb of the 
paper a year. 'I'hcsc, of course ought 
to appear regularly twice a month 
during the ton months of the Harvard 
term. IJui there have been times when 
l^anipoou editors have had to stay In 
Cambridge during the hot days of the 
summer, forsaking seashore delights, 
issuing Lampoons that ought to have 
appeared during tho college term, in 
Older to complcle tboso twenty num- 
bers for inexorable advorUsers. 

Tbc Lampoon in its earliest daye 
had no real headquarters at all. Mar 
tin aud Aitwuod and Stinison simply 
got together, .saiil "Let. thci'e be light 
humor:" and lo ! tlieic was. Butas 
tho paper grew its high estate re- 
quired a sanctum. During its exist- 
ence it liai bad several, culminating 
In tho I'liviniing little building on 
Monnt .Nnliiirn street, which Is the 
pride of e>ery Lampoon nun's bcai'c. 
Before the paper moved into Its pres- 
ent quartci's il incd to loa.sc looms In 
an old-fashioned bouse on Molyoke 
.street, with a creaking slalrway and 
low ceilings- Around the walls were 
settees, on which the editors lounged, 
while (;andidates doposlted their con- 
tributions In a huge punchbowl in the 
centre of a table. Into this table the 
names of scor'3 of editors had been 
mi wijii jacKknives. llauging from 
li.L- wallo were pewter stelnii. each in- 
Lcrilicd with an editor's name. 

Ami how thor.t walls rang when, 
aftei' the cjuiribmions had bceu swept,

The editor in charge of tho pictitres 
that appear in Tho Lampoou is^'uot 
called art editor or art manager or 
any such piosnlc title. He is the Ibis. 
Tbc Ibis, that classical bird, was rn-

Tho Lampoon's out to-night! 

In iliai U'w -ccilingcd sanctum was 
concocted tho Kakc Crimson plot of 
r.i'.il. which to this day makes Hnr- 
v.ini men clincklf with glee. The 
t!riuiïi)n, Il haii been remarked, is the 
Harvard daily paper—a. solemn sheet, 
averse to fjivoiity, austere. Ccrlaiu 
daring spirits on Tlic Lampoon cou- 
ecivcd the idc;i of issuing a Ci'Imsou 
tin 111,-ches. Ascertaining that the 



soher-minded dally was not to appear 
on May 30, 1 901— Decoration Day— 
they cajoled a Crimson editor, who 
wa« also a lAmpoonor, to cajolo the 
printers who printed the Crimson to 
issue a "fake" on that day, sufficient- 
ly like the real tiling to deceive un- 
suspecting undergraduates. 

The deed *an done. The CriiUiun 
that appeared was fearful and won- 
derful to behold. To this day copie 
of it are preser\-ed as sacred relics by 
Limpoon men- The main editorial 
ran tiius : 

'"Phe Crimson feels bound In honor 
and In justice to lis subscribcr.s u 
make the following statement: 

"For several years past The Crim- 
son baa been making money In stead- 
ily increasing amounts. This money 
has been divided up among the édi- 
tera of the pap6r ta the fom of divi- 
dends. The present editors feel that 
since "The Crimson is not primarily a 
money-making enterprise, but is 
merely a form of undergraduate ac- 
tint^' in eomewhat the same way as 
the teams and musical ciuns, tt is not 
right for thèm to appropriate th'.s 
money for their own use. Wo toe! 
that we have money on band at pres- 
ent to which we are not entitled. Tlie 
only honest course opeu to us Is Ij 
refund this money lo those from 
^vhom it was taken. 

"Any one brtogliig the receipt for 
his subscription to The Crimson of- 
flco this evening between 8 and 9,30 
will receive ?1. After this the sub- 
scription prlc6 of Th(s Crimson will be 
f: a year instead of 93." 

All that was buncombe. The Crim- 
son editors had no idea of giving up 
their profits in tbe altruistic manner 
set forth. According to credible In- 
formation, they spent the time be- 
tween eight and nine-thirty that even- 
ing roughly ejecting credulous uudcr- 
graduatcs, largely fréshmcu, from 
their sanctum. 

On the front page of ttat celebrated 
iMue of The OrMnaoa appeared a no- 
tice headed "Bacteria at Large," an- 
nouncing that certain Jars had been 
smashed in tho pb^islologlcal labora- 
tory, as a result of wbiicb various 
kinds of bacteria with deadly Latin 
names and deadlier Vfcrsonal cHarac- ' 
terlsUcs bad been liberated. All who i 
had been working in tho laboratory . 
between certain hours were urgea to 
report to the medical inspector of the 
university at once. Many of them Jld. ' 

Tho Crimson editors were ruriouK. ; 
and Ulkcd darkly of legal, action. But , 
eventually Tbe Lampoon state were 
allowed to gloat over their arch-rival 
vtithout having to wear prison stripes. 

There was an amusing aftermath of 
Uie Fako Crimson, On May 31, isoi, 
tbe day after the hoax, the real Crhn- 
son carried this anuouncemcnt: 

"Tho editors of The Crimson wish 
to state that The Crimson issued yes- 
terday had uo connection with this 
office." 

A year later The Crimson editors, 
fearful of another fake, got out an is- 
sue on .Memorial Day. And the next 
day Tbc Lampoou appeared with this 
aunouDcemeut: 

"The editors of Tho Lampoon wish 
lo announce that Tbe Crimson issued 
yesterday had no connection with tbia 
office." 

Now and then The Lampoon varies 
Its regular scmi-iuonlhly succesilon 
If issues by special issues that add 
greatly to the gayety of college life. 
Oucc there wa.3 a "Life" number, w il'j 
take-offs on that noted cdlld or The 
Lampoon. .\nd there was anolUor 
satirizing the style of the Uu.>>toii 
Dcwspapcrî. 

And now Lampy has been at his 
Pianks for forty years 5 Hut hti 
doesn't show bis age. Whèu e.\-cdit- 
ors with beards ' and undergraduate 
editors w^itbout them gathered at 
Lanapy's new palace, there was the 
same spirit of revelry and Irrever- 
ence, the same deafening ring to 

The Lampoon's out to-nlgtit, tjoys,
